"I believe in the guys in this locker room, but I also believe
we probably have to be coached a lot harder at times," Butler told
reporters after Saturday’s game, via the Chicago Tribune . "I’m sorry, I know
Fred is a laid-back guy and I really respect him for that, but when
guys aren’t doing what they’re supposed to do, you have to get on
guys — myself included."

Those words could be considered inappropriate, but coming from a
player such as Butler, who started Saturday after logging 56
minutes in Friday night’s four-overtime loss to the Pistons, there
may be some merit to his opinion as Hoiberg adjusts to a head
coaching role on the professional level.

"It's not even about being coached a certain way for five years,
it's making everybody do their job," Butler said. "We weren't doing
what we were supposed to be doing. Nobody spoke up about it. I did
(but) probably not enough times. I think that (Hoiberg) has to hold
everybody accountable from the No. 1 player all the way to however
many guys we have. Everybody has to do their job. When you match up
and do your job we'll win the game."
